50.

There is that in me—I do not know what it is—but I know it is in me.
[50.1]

Wrench’d and sweaty—calm and cool then my body becomes;
I sleep—I sleep long.
[50.2]

I do not know it—it is without name—it is a word unsaid;
It is not in any dictionary, utterance, symbol. 1310
[50.3]

Something it swings on more than the earth I swing on;
To it the creation is the friend whose embracing awakes me.
[50.4]

Perhaps I might tell more. Outlines! I plead for my brothers and sisters.
[50.5]

Do you see, O my brothers and sisters?
It is not chaos or death—it is form, union, plan—it is eternal life—it is HAPPINESS. 1315
[50.6]
